Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana IV
Summary:
Despite overwhelming evidence of climate change, the preparedness and action to address climate change risk has not provided the desired results. Some of the key factors of failure of a climate change adaptation project are action without holistic assessment of the risk, the nuances of the existing infrastructure, and piecemeal approach to adaptation. The industrial parks in Telangana face climate risk and need adaptation. To bring about a holistic adaptation to industrial parks in Telangana, the project ”Climate Change Adaptation (CCA project) in Industrial Areas in India” has assessed the climate risk to selected industrial parks and under this report attempts to study the baseline status of selected park in Telangana.
The findings of this report are summarised as:
Describing a method for baseline documentation

1. Introduction and Background of the Study
1.1 Background of the report
Climatic conditions are never static. Historically, the climate has been changing at natural pace. However, human activities have resulted in increasing pace of these changes due to emission of greenhouse gases. The scientific community has predicted that if human intervention were to continue in the same shape and the impacts will become harsher and more unbearable with time; magnitude of loss of infrastructure, human life, business could be several times larger and more unpredictable. In the wake of these changes, communities need to assess the risk, and their current ability to cope with climatic changes, small and large, and not just address disasters post-fact-to. Such a pro-active and structured approach will lead to more resilience and sustained growth.
To provide any solution to climate change, it is important to understand precisely the current infrastructure status, management procedures, maintenance systems, and manpower capabilities to understand the climate change impacts and address them. The baseline information collection will also result in identification of infrastructure gaps, documentation gaps etc.
INTEGRATION has been entrusted by GIZ the task of developing demonstration projects or pilot cases on climate change adaptation in the industrial parks in the state of Telangana &
Andhra Pradesh The first step in this process was to select IPs to be further analyzed, the second step was to establish the baseline documentation for subsequent elaboration of climate change adaptation plans and identification and implementation of climate change adaptation measures in the identified industrial parks.
INTEGRATION has commissioned Core CarbonX Solutions Pvt. Ltd to identify one existing and one upcoming industrial park in the State of Telangana and to undertake the baseline study for climate change adaptation planning.
The study involves below mentioned tasks:
Main Task 1: Preliminary screening of climate risks in existing and upcoming industrial parks / SEZs in the States of Telangana
Main Task 2: Rapid Climate Risk Analysis of selected existing and upcoming industrial area of TSIIC
Main Task 3: Baseline study for the 2 selected (1-existing & 1-upcoming) pilot Industrial Parks in both states
CoreCarbonX has already submitted the report under the Task1, Task 2 The results of Task1 available in the report titled ‘Preliminary Risk Assessment of the Industrial Parks in Telangana’ has resulted in selection of six existing and four upcoming parks based on the preliminary findings on climate exposure and impact data on the adaptive capacity status of the industrial park. Results of Task 2 are available in the report titled ‘Rapid Climate Risk Analysis of Industrial Parks - Experiences Made in Telangana’. The completion of Task 2
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 2
has resulted in selection of Jeedimetla Industrial Park under TSIIC-Jeedimetla zone as existing IP and Pharma city Industrial Park located at Mucherla village under TSIIC- Shamshabad zone as new IP for the baseline study. The detail of the selection process is mentioned in Annex I. This report provides as-is-status of the above industrial parks with respect to the key vulnerabilities identified in Task 2.
This task 3 will provide detailed baseline status of the identified IP. The baseline report provides elaboration on the key baseline parameters needed for development of Climate Change Adaptation interventions. The objective of baseline documentation is to further understand and document the infrastructure and institutional framework in the IP that is already stressed and are likely to get further stressed on account of climatic changes.
Adaptation measures, in the next step, will be identified for the infrastructure and institutional parameters identified as stressed.
The report is divided into three chapters:
Chapter 1: Introduction and background
This chapter provides a background of the climate change adaptation project, objectives and the key aspects of this report
It provides in brief an overview of the earlier steps in the project i.e. Preliminary and RCRA screening reports, current industrial park set up in Telangana, climatic trends as found during the study are also briefed here.
Chapter 2: Baseline documentation methodology
This chapter explains in detail the procedure followed for collecting baseline information from the IP.
Chapter 3: Baseline observations and findings
This chapter describes baseline status of all the key parameters. The information presented in this section is based on survey and other secondary source of information and through any sample collection and primary data.

2. Baseline Documentation Methodology
2.1 Development of baseline
Creation of a baseline of existing assets and services becomes the starting point for climate risk analysis where multiple components are taken together and their interactions are studied. Therefore, to document the baseline, as the first step, an inventory of critical infrastructure in the industrial park was developed. Subsequently, identification of hot spots of these assets and services to climate change impacts for climate resilient interventions was conducted. The figure below shows the broad approach that was followed for this study.
FIGURE 1:METHODOLOGY FOR BASELINE DOCUMENTATION
Inventorisation of infrastructure assets in IP
In Telangana, climate change does not yet figure as one of the primary considerations while planning of Industrial Park. Besides, even if the IP has an environmental goal outlined, it is often observed that it is not translated into the design elements of infrastructure and services for climate resilience. Thus, infrastructure inventories of IP are a starting point and the very basis for preparation of risk inventories for climate change. Infrastructure inventories provides the basis for understanding interdependencies of various sectors. The focus of the
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 4
infrastructure inventory was on collecting baseline information on infrastructure assets and services at the IP level. The approach that will be followed has been illustrated in the below paragraph:
FIGURE 2:APPROACH FOR THE INVENTORISATION
Developing Climate Knowledge of IP
The knowledge of climate, particularly in the context of IP like rainfall, storm surges, availability of water, flood etc., is an essential component of this study. This has already been evaluated for the selected IP at the earlier stage. The same information has been consolidated to make an assessment of impact of these climate hazard on IP.
Identification of Critical infrastructure
In the next step, the climate hotspots was spatially plotted on the IP to identify areas and assets that are likely to be affected. The following criteria has been selected to identify critical infrastructure assets in IP:
Infrastructure assets which are likely to be affected due to flooding, exposure to urban flood and heavy rainfall.
Infrastructure assets which are critical for relief/ response in case of water scarcity/heat wave.
These include road networks, open areas/public spaces/parks, emergency response stations, etc.

2.2 Baseline Documentation of IP
This stage involves preparation of a detailed IP profile.
The IP profile may be categorized as non-climatic and climatic.
The non-climatic profiling involves collecting information and understanding the following:
1. Socio–economic profiling— Density of industries and economic parameters.
2. Environmental profiling— Natural assets of the IP like nearby rivers, water bodies, green cover, waste treatment and disposal, etc.
3. Institutional profiling— this would involve an institutional analysis of IALAs and their functions.
4. Major functions/sectors— an assessment of the major function of the IP in terms of type of industries and size of industries.
5. Growth trends (Physical and demographic)—Growth trends of the IPs in terms of increase in number of industries. A detailed study of the land-use/master plan would be necessary to understand the growth trends.
6. Future projections for growth—Account the future expansion, demands and industry growth of the IP.
The climate related profile of the IP would provide information about the past climatic trends, frequency of extreme events, and observed variability. Some of the indicators with respect to key sectors and their respective guiding questions for baseline documentation are given in the below table. The guiding question will also result in identification of areas under each indicator for documentation.

3. Baseline observations and findings
3.1 Baseline Status of Existing Industrial Park at Jeedimetla
IP Jeedimetla spans in an area of about 894 acres. It is divided into five phases namely, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III, Phase IV and Phase V. Phase II and Phase IV and separated from other phases by the main road that passes between them. Phase II is a residential colonies and does not have any industries under its boundary.
The information collected during earlier phases of the study has also contributed towards development of baseline documentation.
TABLE 2:THE KEY FINDINGS OF THE BASELINE DOCUMENTATION ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Aspect Observations
General profile It is one of the oldest IPs located within GMHC limit and well connected to all the major transportation and other infrastructure. Bulk Drug, Pharmaceuticals, Chemical, Engineering, Paints, Pesticides, Textile, and steel rolling industries are the major occupants of the IP. The IP is nearly 100% occupied with no further space for new industrial development. It houses about 1100 industries with an employee population of about 30,000 employees.
Climatic profile Impacted by drought, heatwave and flash flood Open space Overall open space in the IP is about 10%.
Water logging and storm water system
All phases of IPs experience water logging. The number of water logging spots in Phase III and Phase I are more as compared to other phases. Storm water drains are present cover large portion of the IPs. However, they are being discontinued at certain places. Due to open drainage system and disposal of garbage around the drains they are clogged with heavy silt, leaves, and other items. The cleaning of drainage channels are usually done before monsoon and whenever it gets clogged.
Energy system Almost all the companies depend on state electricity grid for supply of power. However, some of the companies do have provision for diesel generator sets as source of backup power. Many pharma, chemical and bulk drug units require process steam which is generated in onsite boilers of 2 to 5 MT capacity. The boilers are either run on coal and /or biomass. No data was available to confirm the percentage of industries operating on coal and biomass respectively.
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 8
Governance and management system
TSIIC zonal office and IALA are responsible for management of the IPs like, roads, common lights and other infrastructure.
Water and waste water system
Ground water sources in and around IP Jeedimetla have been polluted due to leaching of chemicals. Thus, the industries are mostly dependent on water supplied by HMWSSB (mostly through water tankers) and on private water tankers.
India's first Combined Waste Water Treatment Plant [CWWTP] at Jeedimetla Industrial Area Jeedimetla Effluent Treatment Limited (JETL) was established in 1989 which has a treatment capacity of 5000 m3/day. It treats both high and low TDS effluent and domestic wastewater as well.
The above methodology was applied to the baseline study of existing industrial park i.e. IP Jeedimetla located at Jeedimetla zone in Hyderabad to collect and document the baseline situation at the Industrial park.
A two day visit on 20th, 21st of May 2016 and subsequent visit on 2nd September 2016 was carried out by the team to IP Jeedimetla. A focused group consultation was conducted at the IALA office of the IP on 20th of May. The relevant stakeholders who consulted during the visit were:
IALA commissioner, Jeedimetla IP
Secretary, IALA, Jeedimetla IP
Treasurer, IALA, Jeedimetla IP

3.1.1 Non- Climatic Profile of Jeedimetla Industrial Park
IP Jeedimetla was established more than 40 years ago in the year 1973. It is located in Jeedimetla Industrial zone of TSIIC and administratively in the Rangareddy district of Telangana. It falls within Greater Hyderabad1 Municipal Corporation (GHMC) limits and lies in the Northwest part of Hyderabad. It is well connected with the main road. It is about 15 km from the center of Hyderabad city and about 45 km from the Rajeev Gandhi International Airport at Hyderabad. It is about 20 km from the Hyderabad railway station.
In the last 4 decades, Hyderabad city has expanded in size and the industrial park is now within the city limits. Population density around the park has also grown and the surrounding area is densely populated. There are no major water bodies in the immediate vicinity of the IP. The immediate surroundings of the IP do not have any major green patches.

Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 10
IP Jeedimetla spans in an area of about 894 acres. It is divided into five phases namely, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III, Phase IV and Phase V.
Phase II and Phase IV are separated from other phases by the main road that passes between them (as shown in the map below). There are no physical boundaries demarcating or separating one phase from the other phase. There are no entry and exit gates.
Phase II is a housing/residential area and does not house any industries. Other phases of the IP are purely industrial having small, medium and large scale industries. Bulk Drug, Pharmaceuticals, Chemical, Engineering, Paints, Pesticides, Textile, and steel rolling industries are the major occupants of the IP. The IP is nearly 100% occupied with no further space for new industrial development. It houses about 1100 industries with around more than 30,000 workforces.
Amongst all the phases, Phase I is the largest phase. It covers a total of 358acres. The percentage of open space in Phase I is the lowest i.e. 6%. All other phases have more than 10% open area. Total open space at IP Jeedimetla is 84 acres which is about 10% of the total area. However, it has 21.6 acres of open space which is the largest in all phases.
Phase II is a residential area and smallest in size. In addition to Phase II, 53 acres of land in Phase IV has been allocated to government scheme titled AP Rajiv Swagruha, a housing scheme for moderate income group people.

No major water body is located inside the IP other than water storage tanks. Fire station is located at Phase III next to the bus depot. Common Effluent Treatment Plant /JETL is also located at Phase III. (Map of IP Jeedimetla showing all these items is attached as Annexure B).
3.1.2 Water logging
Storm water drains are existed in all phases of the IP and cover about 60% of the total area of IP Jeedimetla. During the survey it was found that most of the parts of IP Jeedimetla have storm water drains. These drains run along the length of the road and are mostly open.
Drains are present on both sides of the road but in some cases they run only along one side of the road. Rain water from the industrial premise flows into storm water drains, which discharge it into the Municipal sewers, and open nallahs. Some of the storm water flows into natural drains or open spaces outside the IP. The storm water drains are discontinuous at certain places. The storm water drains are open and are usually cleaned before monsoon season or when the drains are blocked.
FIGURE 6:SEWER DRAINS AND GARBAGE IN IPJEEDIMETLA, WHICH POLLUTING THE AREAS
Rain water finds its way into the storm water drains. Whenever the design and maintenance of drainage system is inappropriate it leads to the possibility of flooding/water logging during events of heavy rainfall.
Each phase of IP Jeedimetla has few water logging and/or flooding prone zones. While conducting baseline survey all water logging or flooding areas were identified with the assistance of TSIIC and IALA field staff and visited. The hotspots have been identified by using below legends:

Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 13
Some of the common observations are as below:
- Municipal waste is found lying along the drain- as a part of the cleaning process or as a practice to dispose waste
- Though site visit was conducted during a dry weather several drains had blackish water flowing through them indicating discharge of sewage water into it
- Road intersections in the low lying areas have been identified as hotspots for water logging
- Shoulders of the road at several places are neither paved, nor covered with a green patch providing opportunity to the loose top soil to enter the drains. This increase the possibility of silt accumulation in the drains.
- All the industries where boilers are in operation and there are located adjacent to each other has been identified as possible hot spots.
3.1.2.1 Water logging in phase I
Around six water logging sites were identified in Phase I. Amongst the identified water logging locations, site number V21 was found to be the most effected site. It is situated at Road no.5. This storm water drains over flows during the rainy season due to over loading at the site. A distillery is situated next to the drain. This distillery has in the past experienced water logging due to over flow of the drain. As a remedial measure the distillery has elevated its floor level.

3.1.3 Governance and Management System
IALA has the responsibility of managing the IP along with TSIIC. The IALA allocates about 20% of its funds for environment related activity which includes plantation, storm water drains management, etc. However, no separate funds are allocated towards climate change and disaster management activities. It does not have a workforce which understands the details of climate change aspects. In the absence of this project, the IALA does not intend to spend on enhancing the manpower capabilities.
In the event of any climate change related disaster IALA does not have an identification, reporting and action plan to manage the same. Although, IALA gets frequent complaints related to power outage, submergence, etc., during heavy rainfall and thunderstorms.
3.1.4 Energy System
It is a general practice in the IP to procure power through state electricity board instead of generating power onsite. TSIIC or IALA does not operate any common power or steam generating facility for common offices in IP, lighting or any other purpose. During power interruptions by the supplier, most of the medium and large scale industries operate on diesel generators located in their premise. Overall about 40% of the industries have a diesel generator in their premise.
Amongst all types of renewable sources of power, solar based power generating systems are most popular. Solar water heaters, solar lights and solar fencing systems have been installed by some of the medium and large size industries. There is no other form of power generation and renewable power source used in the IP.
All chemical, bulk drug and pharma units require process steam in the range of 2 to 5 tonnes per hour. To meet the power requirement each unit has installed its own boiler. Coal and biomass the two fuels used in the boiler. During the baseline study, few industries were contacted to understand the fuel type used by them. They confirmed the use of coal and biomass.
3.1.5 Water supply and wastewater management
3.1.5.1 Water Supply
The industrial growth of IP Jeedimetla has have severe negative impacts on the ground water quality of the IP and its surrounding areas. The pollution level of ground water is so high that it is not suitable for use by most of the industries. Many industries in the IP belong to bulk drug, pharma, chemicals and pesticide sector which require high quality process water. This has left the industries with only two options of obtaining water namely, from municipality (mainly through tankers) and other being private tankers.
Hyderabad Municipal Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSSB), has a water supply station at Phase III. It is situated next to the main road i.e. the state highway. This station supplies water to industries in the IP, surrounding slums, and residential colonies namely, Sururam colony, Subhash Nagar and Rajiv Gandhinagar. The water supply station has an overhead tank with water holding capacity of 3 lakh gallons, 900KL water sump and pump house for pumping water through pipeline. The water station supplies about 4.7MGD of
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 22
water through pipeline. In addition to piped supply, water for commercial purposes is supplied through tankers at a price of INR 700 for 5KL of water.
FIGURE 15:WATER TANKS IN IPJEEDIMETLA
Each industry is responsible to organize water for process and non-process requirements.
IALA office or TSIIC is not responsible for organizing water supply for the industries. Since, industrial user is responsible for managing the water supply the data on water use by individual industry is not available with TSIIC or IALA office. However, each industry records its own water consumption and water supply details and submits it to the state pollution control boards regional office. Such submission is mandated by the Consent for o operate (CFO) issued by the state pollution control board. Consent for operation is a certificate which allows the company to operate based on curtained environmental performance parameters for the industry. CFO needs to be renewed periodically. Though SPCB may have data on the water consumption pattern of industries it usually, does not collate the information to understand or report the water consumption pattern of an IP.
However, based on limited information available the phase wise water consumption is given below:
Phase I – not known
Phase II – 1000KL/Month is consumed by the training institute. Water consumption by the remaining housing units is unknown
Phase III- Housing, automobile and fine chemical units in this phase consume 23056 KL/month of water. Water consumed by other types of units is unknown.
Phase IV – Plastic, General engineering and rubber units consume 12000KL/month of water. Water consumed by other types of units is unknown.
Phase V – Pharma, drugs and engineering units consume 16013KL/month of water.
Water consumed by other types of units is unknown.
From the baseline survey it was found that:
- Water inventorization at IP level is not available
- Water pricing for different industries and industrial sectors is absent in public domain

3.1.5.2 Wastewater
Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETP) / JETL at IP Jeedimetla, is the first such effluent treatment unit in India. It is operated by an independent entity called Jeedimetla Effluent Treatment Limited (JETL). CETP is located in Phase III of the IP. It is accessible from Road no 1 and Road no 13. It covers an area of 20 acres, out of which 4 acres is covered by Green patch.
The objective of setting up JETL is to receive the industrial effluent from the small and medium industries for treatment and disposal to the sewers of HMWSSB which meets at Amberpet Sewerage treatment plant (STP) before the treated water flows into the river. Prior to setting up of JETL, the effluent from the industries was discharged into open Nala which is flowing through JIE.
Treatment facility was commissioned in April, 1989 at the cost of Rs. 46 Lakhs to treat 350 m3/day of effluent using Activated Sludge Process. During 1998, the CETP was converted into a Combined Wastewater Treatment Plant (CWWTP) for treating industrial waste and the domestic sewage in a combined plant before discharging to the sewers of HMWSSB.
JETL is treats High TDS (HTDS) and Low TDS (LTDS) wastewater. Multi effective evaporator is used to treat HTDS. The total plant capacity is 5000 m3/day. It currently treats 3500 m3/day of sewerage, 1500 m3/day of LTDS and 400 m3/day of HTDS wastewater.
All industries do not send their effluent to JETL plant. They release the effluent into the drains either after or before treatment of the effluent in their premise. The type of wastewater treatment is also dependent on the type of industrial activity. Several Pharmaceutical and bulk drug industries have statutory obligation to maintain zero liquid discharge. Many of these industries have ETP’s in their own premise to meet the zero liquid discharge condition.
Those who choose to use the services of CETP send the effluent through tankers. Users pay for the treatment depending on the quantity and quality of effluent being sent to JETL.
3.2 Climatic Profile of Jeedimetla Industrial Park
IP Jeedimetla’s is located in semi-arid region. It is experiencing changes in climatic pattern.
The rainfall and temperature pattern have been altered during the past few years. The minimum and maximum temperatures during the seasons have changed. The temperature during summers has increased and the duration of summers has increased. The number of days with heat waves has risen during the last decade.
Drought is another climatic phenomenon which is an indicator of inadequate rainfall and water availability in the region. This term is usually applied to drinking water and for agricultural purposes. Here, it signifies the unavailability of water for industrial, drinking and other non-potable uses in the IP on account of low rainfall. Similar to Hyderabad, the IP has also experienced an increase in the frequency of such situations. Since, the ground water in the IP is polluted; it depends on water supplied by private tankers and by Municipal Corporation. HMWSSB draws water from Krishna and Godavari rivers. The water is received from a distance of more than 100kms and the distance of water withdrawal is only likely to increase with time. Thus, drought situation in the state which impacts the water flow in these
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 24
rivers can have a potential impact on the water availability for Hyderabad and for the industries. Thus, climatically IP Jeedimetla is exposed to water crises.
Heavy rainfall is a climatic event which has impacted and is likely to have even more severe impacts on the IP. The IP has experienced shorter but more intense rainfall in last decade. It is predicted that such variations will only increase. These incidents have increased incidents of water logging in the IP.
Thunderstorm and flash of lightening incidents appears to have increased in the region but there is no documentation on significant negative impact of these events either within the IP or otherwise in the urban areas of Hyderabad. Hence, thunderstorm and stroke of lightening are considered to be inconsequential. Around 20% of the buildings in the IP have installed lightening arresters.
Since, IP Jeedimetla is located in landlocked state of Telangana it does not face impact of cyclone, storm surge and salinization. The surrounding of IP Jeedimetla have been urbanized, hence it is not impacted by wild fires.

3.4 Results and overview of Preliminary Screening of IPs
The State of Telangana is the youngest state in India, formed in the year 2014. It is the twelfth largest state by size and population. The service sector, industries and agriculture are the three main economic drivers of the state. The state has 10 districts which are located in semi-arid and arid climatic zones. In Telangana, water availability and quality of water are two of the primary areas of concern.
The state of Telangana has over 131 Industrial Parks (IPs) established throughout the State.
Several new industrial parks are also under different stages of planning. Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Limited (TSIIC), an undertaking of Government of Telangana State, is a premier organization in the state, vested with the objective of providing Industrial infrastructure through the development of Industrial Parks and Special Economic Zones. To develop and manage the industrial parks TSIIC has divided these IPs into six industrial zones namely Jeedimetla, Karimnagar, Patancheru, Shamshabad, Warangal and Cyberabad. Most of these industrial zones are in the periphery of Hyderabad.
Hyderabad is a well-established hub for pharmaceutical and associated industries. In last two decades Hyderabad has gained international recognition as an information technology hub as well. Details of industrial sectors present and proposed in each of the industrial zone are presented in the table below:

The Task 1 and Task 2, has resulted in a two-step preliminary screening methodological tool for screening of IPs based on their climatic exposure, climatic impact and capability to adapt.
The field-based preliminary screening methodology was tested and applied to 53 IPs in the state, spread across all zones. To reduce the effort for the field-based preliminary screening, before preliminary screening a desk based first screening (first step) was performed to arrive at IPs which are significant for the CCA project in size and the allotment of industrial plots to industries. The field step of the preliminary screening methodology was conducted through one to one interview process with the stakeholders by means of a structured preliminary questionnaire. Zonal manager and officers at zonal office were the key stakeholders identified for this survey. Information of Climatic changes and weather pattern data were also recorded from the revenue department and IMD. The field level information was corroborated with secondary data available with these departments. For the upcoming IPs/new IPs, no climatic impact history and capability information were available through the one to one interview. Hence, the new IPs were assessed based on data from secondary sources on climatic exposure, accompanied with the inputs from corporate office of TSIIC on planning process of IPs. Existing IPs were scored under each section i.e. climatic exposure, climatic impact and capability. Finally, geometric mean of each IP was arrived at and used for ranking the IPs. The IPs finally chosen for climate rapid risk analysis are represented in the table below.

3.5 Results and overview of Rapid Risk Analysis of IPs
The step of rapid risk analysis in this projects aims at:
Describing a replicable approach for a rapid climate risk assessment methodology for industrial parks in India;
Applying the approach to the state of Telangana Rapid climate risk assessment approach
The climate risk assessment approach depicted in this study is based on a 7- Step process as shown in the figure on the right:
Step 1: Identify relevant climatic hazards in the area
Step 2: Determine temporal and spatial exposure of the IP to these hazards
Step 3: Determine susceptibility and fragility of the IPs
Step 4: Combine exposure and
susceptibility to expected impact Step 5: Determine resilience of the IP Step 6: Combine impact and resilience to derive vulnerability of the IP
Step 7: Risk analysis Telangana case study
Five IPs were selected through a preliminary screening process and was analyzed in more detail through the Rapid Climate Risk Analysis Methodology.
Table 3: Rapid Risk Analysis of IPs
Rapid Climate Risk Analysis was carried out for the shortlisted 5-IPs in Telangana as mentioned at above table 2:
Focus Group stakeholder consultations with industrialists, IALAs, TSIIC zonal officers were conducted between 21st of December 2015 and 30th of January, 2016. The stakeholder consultations were guided by a climate risk adaptation questionnaire designed for the study.
Key findings related to each element of the risk assessment approach for existing IPs in Telangana are summarized in below table.
TABLE 11:FINDINGS OF THE RAPID CLIMATE RISK ANALYSIS Element Key findings
Exposure Droughts: the frequency of drought incidents has increased; drought causes reduction in ground water level and several other water quality and availability issues
Heat waves: heat wave situations have become worse in last decade; during consultations IP Jeedimetla, IP Madhapur and IP FIGURE 18: PROCESS OF CLIMATE RISK ANALYSIS
Baseline Documentation for Selected Industrial Parks in Telangana 31
Pashamylaram experienced high exposure levels to heat wave.
Precipitation: Overall, the rainfall pattern of Hyderabad and other regions in Telangana has changed with delayed monsoon, more wide spread rainfall and decreased overall rainfall. Thus, the instance of water logging and flash flooding that IPs get exposed got usually low scoring.
Salinization, lighting and thunderstorms not perceived as relevant or no changes experienced by the IPs.
IP Madhapur and IP Jeedimetla have highest exposure to climatic hazards.
Susceptibility IPs internal road systems, storm water management system, waste water management system and energy were found to be climatically most susceptible areas among the main nine (9)climatic susceptibility measures studied i.e.,
1. Building infrastructure
2. Internal Roads
3. Storm water management
4. Water management
5. Waste water Management
6. Energy
7. Workforce and industrial
8. Production
9. Open spaces and greenery
Water management was found to be the next most susceptible parameter consistently across all IPs.
IP Jeedimetla has highest susceptibility. IP Cherlapally is ranked 2nd in susceptibility. Similarly, IP Rampur and IP Madikonda have high susceptibility. Age, design and type of industries are influencing this ranking.
Resilience IP Jeedimetla and IP Rampur and IP Madikonda are least resilient to climatic changes across all main six (6) parameters i.e.,
1. Financial
2. Rules and Regulations
3. Supply structure
4. Governance and Management
5.Human resource, awareness and knowledge
6. Production
Governance and management, human resource, awareness and knowledge levels at this IP are poor.
IP Madhapur is financially robust, it has a well-designed system for supply of essential services, and thus the resilience of this park is highest and ranked as number 5.
The scoring and subsequent ranking of IPs has resulted in prioritizing “Jeedimetla” as the most vulnerable existing IP. It is proposed that the baseline documentation will be conducted for IP Jeedimetla.
